Was/Is Konerko hurt? He didn't start or pinch hit tonight. I can't believe Konerko is being benched in favor of a guy hitting 1:20. I realize this is a money thing with Adam Done. If he was a rookie or even making a salary of $2 million dollars a year, he would be off this team by now. But still, to bench your team Captain for Done is beyond belief.

Could we petition Selig to change the rules to make it possible to score runs while playing the field? That way, we never have to hit?

"The three great and unique things about baseball that separate it from other sports are, 1.) There is no clock, 2.) The defensive team controls the ball, and 3.) When you are on defense, you cannot score. So, the answer is no, partner."

Game Score is one of the newer stats I really like. What an accomplishment for Harvey. How weak and pathetic our hitting is.

I was just trying to calculate Humber and Buehrle's scores for their perfect games (not that it is complicated, but I haven't seen the metric before). If I did it correctly, Humber got a 96, Buehrle a 93. Harvey had a 97 tonight.

Like I said these clowns make the 67 Sox look like the 27 Yankees hitting wise.

Biggest clown moment, which nobody has mentioned, was when Hector wasn't on deck for his at bat and the game was delayed. That's Little League stuff. I know most of the team has checked out, but are Ventura and Parent sleeping in the dugout now? How does that happen? That's almost Bevington-esque.

It's Bozo's Circus everyday with this team, which is well on its way to being the dumbest Sox team I've watched.

Going back to Harvey...It was one of the most in-command performances I've ever seen. I'll take him over any pitcher in baseball right now.

I don't think Jones had a loss all of last season. He's got three in the first 31 games this year. That's what happens when you walk people. He doesn't seem to be as effective when he comes out for a second inning of work. He better shore that up. There are times where the team needs him to provide more than just one inning.

Harvey is obviously pretty good. The Sox aren't the first team he has shut down this year.

That said, every pitcher the Sox face shuts them down, so it's becoming increasingly difficult to tell the difference between a well-pitched game by the opponent and just another poor showing by Sox hitters.

I'm starting to think it's going to be a pretty long year. When this team slumps, it slumps forever.
